Using a Timing Belt
A pulley is attached directly onto the Resolver axle and connected to a rotating machinery by a timing
belt.
In this case, the load on the axle is the tension on the timing belt and the weight of the pulley.

Using Gears
Pitch errors, total alignment errors, and other gear errors apply a repeated load in the radial direction.

Using Chains
A sprocket can be attached directly to the Resolver axle and the axle then connected to a rotating
machinery with a chain.
The weight of both the sprocket and the chain will be a load on the axle. Rattles in the sprocket and chain
will become shock loads applied to the axle when machine movement stops and starts.
